Netanyahu to visit White House on Sept. 30

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Obama will meet at the White House on Sept. 30 to discuss the status of Israeli-Palestinian talks, the White House said Tuesday.

Netanyahu's visit will come during a trip to the United States for the United Nations General Assembly, which begins next week. The two last met in March, during Obama's first trip to Israel since taking office.

On the same day as their meeting, Vice President Joe Biden will address J Street, a group that describes itself as pro-Israel but that critics say is less than supportive of the Jewish state.
